Adolescence

well, damn. this was such a heavy watch. it was very straightforward, yet so raw and highly psychological. that young boy’s acting was unreal. i had to remind myself that he’s just acting and because of that,,,, i had to pause several times while watching episode 3. wow. the psychologist did an excellent job in her role. i got goosebumps and a headache at the same time. i felt ill listening to their conversation. i was disgusted, but also felt sorry for the kid despite his actions. not going to spoil the motive behind it, but you’ll understand how he became a ‘victim’ of what’s being absorbed through social media. also, the last part of episode 4 was highly emotional. i loved how they focused on his family and their struggle to return to normalcy after the incident. i empathized with them, as it realistically portrayed how a family of a criminal copes.
